There are no bubbles. Just a light texture (dimpling?). Also, not just the extra clear coat as I had hoped for. Quite noticable in the right light. Any rate, not enough to make me go unprotected, but not what I expected.

Rats! Too heavy on the soap? No air bubble as they would be very obvious - I've had them in other screen protectors. Only used a couple drops in 10 oz. or so of warm water as advised in the instructions. Maybe more time will heal it? You have a totally smooth finish?

Really appreciate others experiences.

Btw, when the backlight is on, there is no distortion on the screen.

Mine is crystal clear with no bubbles, dimples or anything else. I used baby shampoo for mine and a credit card. Plus I did it in a steam filled bathroom....

Trial and error.... You could always plop out another whopping six bucks and try again

Biggest mistake is to not "squeegee" all the bubbles out and to not press firmly on the entire skin area to make sure that there are no air gaps. I use a credit card to lightly work out all the bubbles and gaps under the skin. I then use it to lightly scrape the skin surface to press the skin against the Pearl's surfaces.

I have had by Best Skins Ever on for three weeks and mine is perfect [see pics below].

Did you print the online instructions and follow the directions to the letter?

While the process is not technical, it is easy to goof up on any one of the step and to end up with a bad result.

Of course, this assumes that what you are NOT talking about is the slightly wavy surface that is inherent on the skin surface. When looking at the skin from an angle, you can tell it's there. See pics.
